READ THE FOLLOWING POSTS FOR MORE INFORMATION

Hey Everyone,

Invitations went out over the weekend so you should be getting something in the mail from us. All the information (more hotel information, a map, registry information, places to eat and things to do in
Sheridan) on the invitations are in the following posts---please read below. Please let us know if you have any questions.

REGISTRY INFORMATION

Hello Everyone,
We have received a flood of inquires lately about where we are registered. In response to these questions we want everyone to know we understand that coming to Wyoming is a financial burden in and of itself. We are serious when we say that your presence is gift enough.
For those traditionalists out there who refuse to accept the above as an answer, we did go register this past weekend. Again, we sincerely mean it when we say that coming to the wedding is more than enough. With all that said, we are registered at the following: Target, Crate and Barrel, and Macy's.


Please look for Lindsey Scott and Bo Bergstrom at the following ( just as a note sometimes we have WY for Wyoming after our name and sometimes its HI for Hawaii--as we are moving there for the next three years per military orders!!!)

THINGS TO DO IN SHERIDAN


1.) Buffalo Bill Days

www.buffalobilldays.org

Buffalo Bill Days is a big event in Sheridan.

The town celebrates its historic western

history with a variety of events. Including

Saturday morning's breakfast at the Big

Horn Merc, a Pony Express ride, followed by the

authentic Old West Parade. Don't miss the

birthday celebration of the Historic Sheridan

Inn and the Chuck wagon BBQ on the lawn.

While this will make the town much more crowded

there is also a lot to do and see.


2.)The Sheridan Inn

www.sheridaninn.com

Visit the historic Sheridan Inn. The building was

frequented by many old western icons such as

Buffalo Bill Cody. There is even a resident ghost

named Miss Kate.


3.)The Mint Bar

The most famous bar in town, this cowboy bar

served its first beer in 1907... and has not changed

much since! Whether you drink or not stop by

during the day to see the old photographs, historic

knotty pine bar, and maybe even Grandma Charlee

Bergstrom tending bar!


4.)King Ropes and Saddlery and Museum

www.kingropes.com

This store includes a western museum of old

saddles, sidearms, and art in the museum behind

the store. The rope factory is open to the public.

See where the bull riders get their gear and maybe

practice throwing a lasso while you are there.

The King Ropes store is worth seeing for the

high end tack and gifts. Their fine art gallery

highly regarded the western art world.


5.)The Mountains

www.bighornmountains.com/

The Big Horns are an offshoot of the Rocky

Mountain chain. They are pleasantly less

impacted by tourists and therefore offer a very

nice drive with places you can get out and stretch

your legs, go hiking, fishing, or just take in the views.

Ask any local to point you in the right direction. Bring some food for the ride.

PLACES TO EAT IN SHERIDAN

1.) Java Moon (coffee shop, breakfast and lunch)

176 N Main St. 307. 673.5992

Located on Main Street, however, it is best to park in

back. well positioned to visit King Ropes and Saddlery

(next door) and walk Main St. This is a favorite townie

place for breakfast and lunch. Limited to (great) bakery

goods for breakfast and a small lunch menu that sometimes

includes excellent wood fired pizzas.


2.) Silver Spur Cafe (breakfast)

832 N Main St 307.673.7330

3.) Pony Bar & Grill (lunch and dinner)

3 S Gould St. 307.674.7000

GETTING TO SHERIDAN, WYOMING

Hey Everyone,

I wanted to post some information about how to get to Sheridan. Sheridan is located about two hours south of Billings, MT and about two hours north of Casper, WY. Please click here on this link to get an idea: http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&country=US&addtohistory=&searchtab=home&formtype=address&popflag=0&latitude=&longitude=&name=&phone=&level=&cat=&address=&city=sheridan&state=Wy&zipcode=

There are three possible airports to fly into:

1.)
Billings, MT has the most flights and is the largest of all the towns to fly into. Even though Billings is two hours north and seems far away -- the number of flights (therefore most likely the cheapest flights) make Billings probably the best option for traveling.

2.)
Sheridan,WY has a small airport and it is possible to fly directly into Sheridan. This is the easiest of all the options and there are two rental car companys located in Sheridan--Avis and Enterprise.

3.)
Casper, WY has a small airport and is about two hours south of Sheridan.
